At the lower end of the inclined bed A are inclined grooves b b,meeting in the center, and in the center of the end ange a is a V-shapednotch, d. On each side, at the lower end of the bed A, is an'ear, e, inwhich the shaft B has its bearin gs, and upon this shaft the worker isplaced. The worker is composed of three parallel bars, C C, placedloosely at one end on the shaft B and connected together by rods ff. Themiddle bar C extends beyond the side bars, and forms the handle I), andupon the same is also secured a metallic handle, E, as shown.

In the working' of this machine the worker C j' is moved up and down,and at the same time from side 'to side on the shaft B, so as to travelover the entire surface of the inclined bed A.
